Introduction: The aim of this article is to describe our technique of bilateral laparoscopic pyelolithotomy (LP) in a 54-year-old patient with bilateral large stones of which one is a staghorn stone (SS). Case Presentation: The patient's legs were extended and spaced from each other; the table was tilted to the right and to the left in a way to use only five trocars for both sides. The calculi were delivered intact at the end of the procedure. Operating time was 208 minutes. Blood loss was 250 mL. Hospital stay was 3 days. Double-J stents were removed 4 weeks later. The patient was stone free with a stable serum creatinine. Conclusion: This case report is the first to describe a bilateral LP for large and SS. This procedure can minimize the postoperative morbidity and is associated with high stone-free rates. It is safe when done by expert surgeons, but further investigations are required to assess its reproducibility. |
